Testing the Enclosure Connections
Use this procedure to power on the newly installed system.
1. Press the power switches at the back of each drive enclosure to the On ( –) position.
This ensures that the disks in the enclosures have enough time to completely spin up
before being scanned by the RAID modules in the controller enclosure. Depending
on your configuration, it can take several minutes for the system to power up.
While enclosures power up, their LEDs blink. After the LEDs stop blinking, if no
LEDs on the front and back of the enclosure are amber, the power-on sequence is
complete and no faults have been detected.
For a description of LED behavior and status, see “Hardware Components and
LEDs” on page 13.
2. Press the power switches at the back of the controller enclosure to the On ( –)
position.
If the enclosure’s power-on sequence succeeds as described in Step 1, the system is
ready to use.
Obtaining IP Values for Your Storage System
To obtain the IP values for your system:
1. Look in the DCHP server’s address for the two IP addresses assigned to an “HP
StorageWorks MSA2000 Family” storage device.
2. Use a network management utility to discover “HP StorageWorks MSA2000
Family” storage devices on the local LAN through SNMP.
3. Use a ping broadcast to try to identify the device through the host’s ARP table.
If you do not have a DHCP server, you will need to obtain the IP addresses from
your network administrator, and set them using the CLI during initial configuration
(see “Setting Management Port IP Addresses Using the CLI” on page 50).
